In the first game, Dan Pasqua, Greg Walker and Daryl Boston hit successive home runs in the fourth inning and Walker tripled in the go-ahead run in the fifth inning to lead the White Sox to an 8-7 victory.

With one out in the top of the ninth of the nightcap, Todd Benzinger hit his fourth homer off the reliever John Davis to tie the score 2-2.

Pasqua's r.b.i. single with two out in the sixth inning off Roger Clemens had given the White Sox a 2-1 lead.

Clemens struck out 15 and allowed only three hits in eight innings. Clemens, who leads the majors with 186 strikeouts, entered the game with nine straight victories on the road. Clemens is 72-27 lifetime but 3-6 against the White Sox. The last time Clemens beat Chicago was April 11, 1986.

Lee Smith (3-4) pitched two innings for the victory.

The White Sox trailed 4-0 in the first game when Harold Baines walked to open the fourth and scored ahead of Pasqua's 10th home run into the upper deck in right field.

Walker hit his sixth homer into the right-center field corner of the bullpen and Boston followed with his homer in almost the same spot to tie the score.

The three home runs in succession tied a team record last achieved in 1985 by Rudy Law, Bryan Little and Baines against Toronto. Angels 8, Indians 5

CLEVELAND (AP) - Tony Armas had three hits, including a three-run homer, and Chili Davis snapped an eighth-inning tie with a run-scoring single as California won its fourth in a row.

With the score tied at 4-4, Johnny Ray led off the Angels' eighth with a single off Doug Jones (1-2). Ray went to third when Willie Upshaw, the first baseman, misplayed Wally Joyner's bouncer for an error.

Davis then lined a single to right, scoring Ray. Davis was caught in a rundown between first and second on the play, but Upshaw threw wildly into left field for another error, allowing Joyner to score and Davis to go to second.

After Thad Bosley walked, Armas lined a run-scoring single to make it 7-4.

The Angels have won 16 of their last 22 games; the Indians have lost 21 of their last 30. Mariners 9, Blue Jays 3

TORONTO (AP) - Greg Briley hit his first major league home run and Steve Balboni added a three-run shot as Seattle scored five runs in the fourth inning.

Jim Clancy, demoted to the Toronto bullpen, made his first regular-season relief appearance since July 4, 1979, to break a string of 282 consecutive starts.

He pitched three innings, gave up one hit, one walk and struck out one. Orioles 4, Rangers 1

BALTIMORE (AP) - Jim Traber and Ken Gerhart hit back-to-back home runs and Jay Tibbs scattered eight hits over six innings as Baltimore won its seventh game in the last 12.

Charlie Hough (8-9), the Texas starter, had not allowed a home run on the road in 71Z innings. The Orioles have hit 27 homers in the last 20 games. Brewers 5, Twins 4

Reardon (0-3) came on in the ninth to protect a 4-2 lead for the starter, Allan Anderson. He retired the first two Brewers before giving up a single to a pinch-hitter, Billy Jo Robidoux, and a bloop single to Darryl Hamilton.

Paul Molitor, who played second base for the first time this season to prepare for his start there at the All-Star game Tuesday, followed with a double, scoring Robidoux and sending Hamilton to third. Molitor was able to advance because the Twins did not cover second base. Two pitches later, Gantner lined his single to right, causing Reardon to blow his fourth save opportunity out of 27 chances this season.
